Unlike polycystic ovarian disease, women with hyperthecosis have normal or low immunoactive LH levels. Bioactive LH levels have not been studied in these women. Since women with hyperthecosis respond to GnRH analogs with a decrease in androgen levels, it is possible that these women have ...
A luteinizing hormone test measures how much luteinizing hormone (LH) is in your blood. LH helps your reproductive system: specifically, a woman’s ovaries and a man’s testes. It’s also called lutropin and interstitial cell stimulating hormone. It’s made in your pituitary gland, which is...
The response of luteinizing hormone (LH), follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), and 17 β-estradiol to d-Trp6-LH-releasing hormone (LH-RH) was studied in 34 normal women. This long-acting, superactive analog was given by several routes of administration (intravenously, intramuscularly, and by...
Cyclic range of LH for M. mulatta was 1.4 to 6.3 µg, for Papio papio 0.4 to 5.5 µg, and Pongo pygmaeus 1.2 to 3.6 µg. Luteinizing hormone peaks appeared after ovulation as determined by the vaginal cytology in the P. pygmaeus and the M. mulatta. The midcycle peak of LH ...
Interestingly, serum LH levels in the women on 75 IU r-hLH were undetectable despite optimum effects on follicular maturation. Likewise, inIVFcycles in women on full-dose Gn-RHagonistpituitary suppression, endogenous serum LH levels are sufficient to allow complete follicle andoocyte matura...
Ovarian ascorbic acid depletion test was used to determine the µg equivalents of LH in 32 h urine samples. Cyclic range of LH for M. mulatta was 1.4 to 6.3 µg, for Papio papio 0.4 to 5.5 µg, and Pongo pygmaeus 1.2 to 3.6 µg. Luteinizing hormone peaks appeared after ...
The levels in serum of luteinizing hormone (LH), progesterone (P) and oestradiol (E 2 ) during the menstrual cycle have been established in Caucasian women but not in Asian women. In a preliminary study, measurements were made of LH, P and E 2 in aliquots of daily serum samples collected...

born <30 weeks' gestation for analysis of luteinizing hormone and follicle-stimulating hormone by automated immunochemiluminometric immunoassays.The 43 male infants demonstrated a range of luteinizing hormone levels from 0.1 to 13.4 IU/L and of follicle-stimulating hormone levels from 0.3 to 4.6 IU/...
Human luteinizing hormone (LH) and chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) have been considered biologically equivalent because of their structural similarities and their binding to the same receptor; the LH/CGR. However, accumulating evidence suggest that LH/CGR d
